Who pays for this blog? I receive no fees, considerations, etc. etc. for the posts on this blog nor do I have any plans to accept any. My salary is paid by Canwest Global Communications Corp. I work for that company as the Ottawa-based National Affairs Correspondent for Canwest News Service. The blog publishing platform used here is called Blogware and it's developed by Tucows Inc. of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. My use of Blogware should not be taken as an endorsement of that company. Like all Blogware users, I do not pay any fees for the use of this service. I participate in program. Google pays me some money and, for that, I give Google some space on this site to display ads. Google sells those ads and Google, not me, decides what advertising content you are seeing. I do not filter these ads and take no responsibility for them. Readers should not assume I endorse any of the products or services advertised here. If you think other disclosures are appropriate in this space, I'd like to hear from you.

Pundits' Guide
mbpowell, I've been adding election expenditure data in to the Pundits\' Guide, and will be adding more reporting on it in the coming weeks.
I'm not going to do contributions, as the site's mandate is more focussed on providing metrics for analyzing elections, rather than facilitating opposition research. However, I will soon be adding functionality that lets users see and search on categories of expenditures by candidates and parties. And in the medium-term, I'm hoping to provide links directly back to that candidate's return at Elections Canada, so individuals can search for themselves.
For the time being, for any riding in the 2003 representation order, you can click on "Financial Metrics" on the riding profile page, and see some of the candidates' spending metrics, and how much money was transferred to them by the central campaign. Here is an example using Windsor West.
